Because turnout for election was less than 51%. Where turnout is 50% (50.0% – 50.9%), it is deemed to be below a majority. This is based on the counting for motions of confidence, where a majority must involve a whole number (no fraction of 1 can signify a majority).
Look out for legislation that passes with a narrow margin. Look out for which MPs are sitting on committees, or proposing legislation. Look out for which Minister is enacting Statutory Instruments. I propose that any parliamentary outcome that depends on these illegitimates is null and void. Please see this page’s parent post for a list of illegitimates in ministerial appointments.
